The mean of a distribution is 23, the median is 25, and the mode is 28. It is most likely that this distribution is

a. Negatively skewed

b. Positively skewed

c. Symmetrical

d. Asymptotic

Respuesta :

Answer:

Negatively skewed

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The mean of a distribution is 23, the median is 25, and the mode is 28.

To Find :  Type of distribution

Solution:

Mean = 23

Medan = 25

Mode = 28

[tex]Mean < Median < Mode[/tex]

So, the given distribution is negatively skewed

So, option A is true

Mean is the value average whereas median is positional average.

The given distribution is most likely

Option a: Negatively skewed.

How to identify the distribution from its mean, median and mode?

For a symmetric distribution, mean is the middle value. If its like bell shaped, all mean, median and mode will coincide.

The distribution is positively skewed if mode < mean

Distribution is negatively skewed if mode > mean

For the given distribution, it is visible that

[tex]Mean = 23 < Median = 25 < Mode = 28[/tex]

Thus, the distribution is negatively skewed.

Thus,

The given distribution is most likely

Option a: Negatively skewed.
